What Do You Do When You're Branded

作词 : Smith, Spivey

Branded... scorned is the one who raaaan

What do you do when your branded? And you know you're a man.

Wherever you go, for the rest of your life

You must proooooove, you're a man

[Verse 1: Busta]

See now I'm back wit the force, read about the kid

from the front to the back of The Source

You see me back on the course

Scream on every beat untill my voice get crackled and horse

Front seat mother****ers never sit in the back wit a boss

**** the fact that it cost, the pricetag of the porche

Will cost ya life, have ya motha feel an immaculate loss

*Breath* But of course, come and speak to the best

And watch me spit a jewel sharper to carve the meat of your flesh

You lookin weak in the chest, you see the street is a test

Women on the stoop smokin holdin a seed to they breast

You see the street is a mess

Strugglin holdin a couple pounds of shit then the rest

Now I proceed to the rest of my mother****ers Keepin it fresh,

Though we must stay on the grind I supersceded the stress,

We always seem to finesse from the East to the West,

You Know we w-w-we keep the teflon from the street to the vest

Kill that mother****er slow like how you get defeated in chess

Got you under pressure--hairline receaded effects

Hot air mother****ers I only feel the heat from your breath,

Rap mother****ers beef in they album probably needed the press

And as a man I never found the slightest need to impress

Another man because I'm proud and I believe that I'm blessed

But yo I always found the need to adress these weaker mother****ers

That speak to the street always keepin the people abreast

Now you've been branded...

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: Busta]

Higher science and I'm changin the crime in,

Watch my son cuz you'd be ****ing wit the child of a Giant

Im in a place stuck between bein lovin and violent, [voice switch]

Becomin more of a threat when I move subtle and silent,

Then set it off to be the only one to quiet the riot

My destiny's the only thing between the sky and the pilot,

Relate, it's like bustin a 3-8

Be late, I be takin most of the brick leavin a pile outta shape

I never quit watchin these mother****ers try to hide they mistake,

Takin a shit watchin they body floatin by in the lake

Make it quick you weak mother****ers better try to escape,

And create the quickest way to reach the fire escape.

Snitch mother****ers always quick to go and lie on a tape,

But it's o-k cuz Super Hero mother****ers die wit a cape,

It's so great to watch them finally break, stand aside from the fake

Street mother****ers gotta slide for the take

Bein broke and not bein able to buy me a steak

Stackin my paper so see now I can buy an estate,

so I rely on the love and I reply to the hate

So much pain in the struggle my whole body'll ache...come on...

From the gates, so awake that was the plan of my fate

Now I'm straight...got me my OWN knife and fork on my plate

Wanna scorch a debate, wait...do me a favor bitch jus REMEMBER

The date...cuz you been...

[Chorus]
